Lawn Care Services

Specializing in safe, affordable Household Pest Prevention. Our Lawn & Plant Health Care services are a real alternative to "lawn spray" services. Our horticultural services are customized to suit the property. We inspect before any treating is done to determine the need. We care for St. Augustine grass, palms, azaleas, oaks and nearly every other plant you might find in the central Florida landscape. We also make recommendations for proper pruning, mowing and watering. Pest Prevention for homes and businesses is designed to stop pests before they enter the building. These pests includes ants, roaches, spiders and wasps. Stopping these pests before they make it inside is the safest and most efficient way to perform this type of service.

Green Services

Green is all the rage nowadays. We are bombarded with "save the planet" messages from environmental groups, government agencies and businesses trying to cash in on a trend. Ever wonder just how much of it is true or necessary? We do.

On the other hand we care very much about protecting the environment. In fact it's part of our name. Environmental Pest & Lawn Services has been giving you green for years. And we do it in a practical, no-nonsense way.

No one disputes that insects and other pests spread disease, damage our homes, lawns and plants; and inflict dangerous bites and stings. We don't accept such destructive nuisances in civilized society. So there's no question that pest control is essential.

Grass, trees and shrubs clean and filter storm water, and prevent soil erosion. Plants cool our landscapes and homes, while capturing dust and reducing noise and glare. And, they do all of this while producing oxygen and consuming carbon dioxide. What could be better for the environment than that? They also make our world more beautiful to look at, and just plain more livable. Treatments for plant health care are important for our well being.

How we perform our services is important both to you and the environment. Some of our practices include the following:

All technicians are trained and certified by the University of Florida's Florida Green Industries "Best Management Practices." This training ensures that our services are performed in a manner that protects our groundwater.
No indiscriminate spraying. We inspect to determine the need before treating. It takes more time and effort to monitor the property for pests and deficiencies, but it's the right thing to do.
We use the least toxic products to accomplish our goals. The use of low-dose and low-impact products is standard. Preserving beneficial organisms is in our best interest.
We don't perform treatments just to generate income. All of our treatments are proven to be beneficial for all concerned. Our standard of ethics won't allow us to sell services that offer little benefit for the money.

We can't speak for everyone in our industry. This is how we do it, and have been doing it for twenty years. We haven't made a big deal of it, either. It is common sense. And it is ethical.
